"Dominate the Deal"

There's one microcosm of life that is so true in all walks of life: When life knocks you down, you can either get back up and fight to make yourself better everyday, or you can feel sorry for yourself! My guest Rehman Akhtar dealt with incredible adversity with the death of his wife Shaafia and being an immigrant in London at a very young age having to deal with bullying; more so, from these experiences, what life lessons and habits Rehman learned in picking himself back up and starting a stand-up comedian career at age 11 as well as now being a successful property business mogul/entrepreneur. In addition, how one book "The Slight Edge" helped him focus on what's most important in life: finding one's true purpose in life. Furthermore, we get into what Rehman's core values are, who some of his inspirations are, and how more people should be investing in mentors to fast-track their path to success. Also, why TAKING ACTION is the key to unlocking the magic of life's many opportunities and why it's vital to instill a strong sense of self-confidence and self-belief to become more present in life and to become more successful in everything that you do!

How does one become the best? By being 1% better everyday, but on this episode my guest Justin Feldman, CEO of Wealthy Body Academy, talks deeply about how he finds the right clients for his business based on his core values of personal growth and really knowing your WHY in doing what you're doing. Also, we talk about the life lessons that he learned from his failures and his eye-opening car accident that snapped him out of his dream-like life he was living in to finding inspiration in Grant Cardone! Also, we get very spiritual as Justin explains why it's important to be able to connect with yourself and relieve stress daily. Furthermore, we talk about how mentors have motivated him to change his environment and surround himself with the best people and why being comfortable in life is killing you! I'm very grateful for the opportunity to talk with this ambitious, positive and laser-focused entrepreneur Justin Feldman, I hope you enjoy the experience!!

If you're going through hell, keep on going! Today's special guest is Michael Prediger, a respectable man within the startup game, as he's had his hand in over 10 different start-up businesses in Germany and all around the world. In this episode, we dive deep about why the numbers aren't the most important thing for your business plan, it's your WHY that determines the authenticity and success of your business. In addition, we talk about how one must accept the reality that you will encounter struggle, setbacks, and failures and how you can adjust your business strategy to get on the right track. Furthermore, we talk about the failures he had early in his life with startups as well as how the death of his trusted business partner lead him to become more spiritually alive and successful now. Also, Michael discusses why his family is his biggest inspiration and how he found his true purpose of helping young entrepreneur startups fast-track their path to success and why he believes it's better to have a tighter circle of influence in order to be successful and how you can find the right business partner without looking for the right business partner. Finally, we get into whether it's mind over matter or is it action alone that creates new thoughts and beliefs? It was an absolute joy to learn from him in this episode and I hope that you got massive value from his experiences... until then, Dominate your life. DOMINATE THE DEAL and stay tuned for the next episode!

Have you ever met somebody that you realize has an incredibly inspirational story? I'm here with Fester, he talks about how he overcame his addictions to drugs and alcohol. In addition, he talks about how his core values grounded in spirituality are greatly different than what is idolized in rockstar culture. Furthermore, he really dives deep into how he wants to use music to spread his vision of giving back to the world through philanthropy projects to help at risk young musicians. He brings an intensity that I believe will revolutionize how music brings different people together and set the standard for music in the future that will help make the world a better place!

I'm airing my first live episode in beautiful, breath-taking South Miami Beach with Entrepreneur and Founder of Celeste Success, avid world traveler, and a very close friend of mine Celeste Holyoake. Today we talk about how even with 15 years of sales experience and negotiation success as well as financial advising and real estate expertise, there were times where Celeste felt very depressed and realized that she wasn't living up to her full potential. Armed with a purpose to change her life and make an impact on other entrepreneurs, she became passionate about creating a more spiritually grounded version of herself that centers around her core values of personal growth, spiritual awakening, as well as relentless passion and accountability that allowed Celeste to consistently carry herself with poise and certainty of voice. We go deep into her biggest inspirations that mentored her towards rapidly generating success personally as well as financially; in addition, we cover a guided meditation called the "Slingshot" as well as the #1 habit that you can start doing now that will help you become certain of what you want in your life!

This episode is the very first of my brand new podcast "Dominate the Deal." In this episode, I lay down the foundation for my negotiation podcast that focuses on improving your non-verbal communication via a dominant voice and dominant body language, how to instill a positive mindset that overcomes your limiting beliefs and how to incorporate daily practices of meditation and affirmations to reinforce positive energy and success for your negotiations. I also got vulnerable about myself and how I was depressed at a blue-collar drywall construction job and was even suicidal at various points of my life and how I eventually found my purpose to host a podcast that helps aspiring digital marketing entrepreneurs and email copywriters who are struggling to acquire and close more clients to finally get the deal done!
